I'm a little late in posting this, but next weekend in Rosemont Illinois the Muscle Car & Corvette Nationals (MCACN) will take place at the Donald Stephens Convention Center. This show is the absolute premier muscle car show of the year with the absolute best of the best from every brand.
A few years ago Ram Air Rick and I discussed putting together an invitational display for the show of the best of the best AMC cars, and with the show organizer's blessing, we were off. We thought it might happen last year, but we couldn't commit. We are happy to say that this year we will have a fantastic display of 13 of the finest AMC cars you will ever see. Of these 13, 6 are fresh fresh restorations being seen for the first time publicly. Almost every car in the display is "new" to the show scene, as well, so this isn't the same old stuff you've seen before. Our display is called "Nash Nutz American and will be in the back center of the show hall. Accompanying the Display will be a collection of AMC dealership memorabilia and signage. When you walk in the show look for the 12' vertical AMC sign and come say hello! Rich and I want to thank everyone who puled this together. It was quite a task committing cars from all over the country a year in advance - many of which were incomplete at the time (and some are still being finished up even this weekend). I won't spill the beans on the cars... but suffice to say it is a collection of proper, stock AMC muscle at a such a high quality level that has never been assembled before. |

Should be an awesome show as usual. We were there last year with the Matador on display in the lobby and the year before that with the wife's GTO in Day 2. I know that you guys worked hard on putting this together, so i can't wait to see the display. The Randall Gremlin unveiling sounds exciting. Never actually saw one in person. It will be nice to meet some more AMC fans. Stop by the Long Term Owners Display and say hello. I will be there with my red 70 AMX. It will be nice to see you again Tony, glad you can make it. Mike.

It is. When we first went there in 2016 it was overwhelming. So many nice cars and even nicer people. It was worth driving out from New York to attend.
